Vaginal Speculum:  2 Great Things About New and Innovative ClearSpec Vaginal Specula

Posted by Stephanie Jeffrey on Oct 30, 2018 3:04:00 PM

Obtaining a clear view and full access to the cervix is critical in order to provide women with the high quality gynecological care they deserve. In the past, this has proven challenging, particularly in multiparous patients or those who are obese, as excessive lateral wall tissue can interfere with vaginal and/or cervical exams or biopsies conducted with a traditional vaginal speculum which provides only superior and inferior vaginal tissue retraction. Many professionals are now finding that the use of a ClearSpec disposable speculum with sheath and a built in light source not only provides an improved view of the cervix but also increases the overall speed and efficiency during every examination without sacrificing patient comfort.

Standard speculums offer only single-plane (superior/inferior) tissue retraction:

Great Thing #2

ClearSpec includes a reposable LED Illuminator with automatic on/off switch in every box.

Reposable devices are reusable and disposable. Reposable medical instruments provide the convenience of single use instruments with the cost savings of reusable. They are labeled for more than one use, but are not designed for years of wear and tear which directly reduces procedural costs.

ClearSpec reposable LED illuminator eliminates the cost of the charging unit and illuminator (approx. $395 complete set) of other brands such as the venerable Welch Allyn. 1 box of ClearSpec illuminated specula is similar or less cost than 1 box of Welch Allyn illuminated specula (both brands approx. $2.30 per speculum)

The ClearSpec LED illuminator clicks neatly and easily into the speculum handle. One illuminator is included in every box and is re-used for the entire case of specs, then disposed of after the case is finished.

No cords, no charging time, no cost of illuminator or charge unit and accessories.

And no costly mistakes when doctor inadvertently throws rechargeable illuminator out with the used speculum.

The cost to replace a thrown out Welch Allyn illuminator is in the hundreds of dollars. ClearSpec illuminator replacement cost is zero as it is FREE with each box ($65 if purchased separately for some reason).
